If it's crap... We'll tell you
Bay Slams Fox's Negative Comments
Source: US Magazine
US Magazine recently heard from Transformers director Michael Bay, who responded to some negative comments that Megan Fox said about him and his latest film Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
Fox told Entertainment Weekly: "I mean, I can't s--- on this movie because it did give me a career and open all these doors for me. But I don't want to blow smoke up people's a--. People are well aware that this is not a movie about acting."
Bay responded, saying, "Well, that's Megan Fox for you. She says some very ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do. You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, 'Okay Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it'."
As for the film itself, Bay says he "100 percent disagrees" with Fox.
"Nic Cage wasn't a big actor when I cast him, nor was Ben Affleck. before I put him in Armageddon. Shia LaBeouf wasn't a big movie star before he did Transformers -- and then he exploded. Not to mention Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, from Bad Boys," he points out.
Bay also thinks Fox could be a little more grateful: "Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in Transformers. I like to think that I've had some luck in building actors' careers with my films."

Maybe Meagan Fox does have acting potential, but knowing Bay's filming style, he prefers the actresses in his films to just pose for Maxim photos and such.
I do give credit to Fox for noticing that even though this movie is crap, it did make her noticeable in Hollywood. Bay is just jealous, he just doesn't want his actors to get better movie careers than him. That's probably why he mentioned his former subordinates, probably teary eyed wondering how they made it big and considered good or semi-good while Bay will always be seen as a porno director.

Comment by Clown Baby on July 3, 2009 at 1:24pm - I know Michael Bay's a douche, but he does raise a point about Megan Fox's carrier. Megan fox is beautiful, but she's not, like, the greatest actress in the world. She's a pretty face. There are loads of beautiful women all over the world, Megan Fox is just the now. I remember a few years ago people were gaga over Jessica Alba, now she's had a baby, dropped off the radar, and people got over her. Megan Fox should just do what she's paid too, wave, smile, look pretty, and shut up. And as far as Bay making carriers, it's mostly because his movies are high profile action flix, and they get a lot of attention. There's no doubt in my mind Shia LeBeouf would have been famous regardless of Bay, and as far as Affleck....Good will hunting anyone? The same goes for all of the actors mentioned, they just made the right call in going with high profile jobs.

I honestly thought Michael Bay couldn't get any stupider. I was wrong.

Comment by Dr. Detfink on July 3, 2009 at 10:18am - If Michael Bay wants to take credit for making the careers for Cage, Affleck, etc. then look no further than a bottle of milk who made his. Michael Bay, Mr. Art center of Pasadena got his break doing those "Got Milk" commercials. So his contribution to "art" would be cum stain staches.
